Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit
length, etc.) transmitted from an HDMI
jack may be suppressed by the
connected equipment.
Sound may be interrupted when the
sampling frequency or the number of
channels of audio output signals from
the playback equipment is switched.
If the connected equipment is not
compatible with copyright-protection
technology (HDCP), the image and/or
the sound from the HDMI OUT jack of
this system may be distorted or may
not be output. In such a case, check
the specifications of the connected
